Explain why people don't do this ( giant plant pots )

Ok, so we all had nutrient problem, pH problems, deficiencies, overferting ... ALL...
As we can see, in nature these things don't happen that often ( all the plants in my yard grow and grow and grow and don't seem to be unhappy, hell, they grow even more ).
Why can't we simulate this in our own houses? ( this article is aimed at people who have the benefits of a big grow room and don't want to plant TOO many weedies )
In nature if a plant needs more nutes or something, it grows a bigger root system. It would try this in a normal 1 gallon pot, but there ain't enough space.
So i thought( yea, i know it's something most of you guys thought, but i didn't see it written on the forum ) why not get ( read here DIY ) a big container, fill it with dirt and all the things nature has ... Throw in some garden worms, add some compost from the wood/your garden/ the park/ whatever place you consider adequate .

The box should be 40cm/40cm/15cm= that is 24 litres or 6.3 gallons
I think 1 or 2 plants can grow in that and need nutes maybe only in the last month of growing.
This way you avoid all the problems adding nutes gives a noob ( i.e. ME ).


Please give me your input and oppinions.
Thanks

Well, for starters, obviously an indoor grow is going to be different than an outdoor grow. IMO, I wouldn't plant 2 plants in a 6.3 gallon pot. I use 5 gallon pots for all of my grows and only one plant goes in each pot. As far as your soil idea, I really can't say for sure if it would work. But I would really stick to a soil like Ocean Forest which gives you all the perlite, worm catings, etc. already in the soil. With all that, your plant is still going to require nutrients in an indoor grow.

I saw a large grow using DIY 4x4 tables with 8" sides filled with dirt, 12/12 from clone, 1 clone per sq ft.

To get the dirt+roots out after harvest, he chops it up into cubes...

To answer your question though, an organic soil mix will meet your requirements. Slow release additives such as bone/blood meal, lime, will carry you through to harvest and eliminate ph problems, over/under nuting. All you need from seed to harvest is water.

Plenty of organic growers DO try to set up their containers with enough soil and amendments so that they only need to water with plain water for the entire growing period, so your idea is not farfetched.

I may be corrected by a more experienced grower, but most people who grow in soil choose smaller containers to limit the eventual height/size of the plant, not the amount of nutrients it can receive. It's much easier to add nutes than it is to "ungrow" your weed!

I see. I am going to try my, how did you say?, "farfetched idea"
For a noob like me i find it easier to just plant and water and learn in a safer environment ( i.e. not killing the plant at first watering ). And the height problem is a good one for me, i have a relatively big space and 1 plant can grow as much as it desires.

i seen this and i LOL'ed. i litteraly started laughing.... i though this would be some miracle when i thought of it.....

Fully organic growing is the way to go my friend. i have not have a PH problem, nutrient problem, lock-out ect. for over 6 years.......

Super soil + Super tea = Super plants.

i LITERALLY put super soil in buckets, water every watering with 50% compost tea and harvest 2 months later.... no problems, no worries, and the buds taste like sugar.

Goto the Organics forum and Then goto Subcools Oldschool Organics.... you will learn ALOT.

P.S:
Pot Size : Plant Age
4 inch pots = 0-14 days
1 gallon pots = 14-30 days
3 gallon pots = 1 month - 2 months
5 Gallon Buckets = 3-5 Months.....
